changes or due to vibration during use. If that occurs, 

retighten the screws with a Phillips screwdriver.

NOTICE

• First spread out blankets or soft cloths to prevent 

the floor from being scratched.

CAUTION

• The speaker stand should be set up or moved by

CAUTION

• Be careful since loosening the spikes too much may cause them to fall off.
